'LNG/KPOO/KCDX etcetcetc for the week of 4/19/10

[RGMike]

wow, one from the New Colony Six that's also NTM: "I Could Never Lie To You", very much in the "Things I'd Like To Say" ballpark.

[RGMike]

OMGWTFLOL-of-the-day: Lemon Pipers, "Jelly Jungle (of Orange marmalade)" -- "take a trip on my pogo stick" indeed.

[RGMike]

Spirit's "Fresh Garbage" sounds a bit odd in the midst of Offshore's plethora of cheezy BritPop, but it's welcome nonetheless.

[RGMike]

Magic 98's "Saturday at the '70s" is having a OHW day -- not just 2 or 3 OHWS an hour, but pretty much all OHWs all the time. Gun Hill Road and Wadsworth Mansion just made appearances. Fab stuff.

Barry Scott's playing part of a Marty Balin interview, leading into "Count On Me" during a 1978 Yearbook segment.

Dame Cliff ain't countin' shee-ee-eep; Melanie's layin' down with the Edwin Hawkins Singers.

OMGWTF! Barry Scott pulls out that rarity-of-rarities, The Tourists (aka Dave Stewart & Annie Lennox) doing a synth-pop cover of "I Only Wanna Be With You", one of my favorite versions of the tune (sure beats the Bay City Rollers take). I have this on one of my early-NewWave mixtapes (a friend actually owned the LP) but haven't heard it on the radio in years. "Now listen, honey!"
